He was on a stock fuel system on a E blend it sounds like. That means he was maybe making 24psi before he ran out of fuel.

A Boss600 (provided it has fuel) will make a bunch more power.

Gotcha, that's what I was thinking as well. I noticed you work with United Motorsport? Are you the guys doing the Litco Hybrid?

BTW: just did an is38 turbo myself on Unitronic Stage 2+ tune. Conservative tune as well. We dynoed in at 347whp/368fpt. It's more than enough for me in my opinion. I'm planning on Daily Driving, and doing light track days. I couldn't see this car needing 500whp D: It's not even going to be used unless your tracking regularly on Big Willow or Button.

This is from Quebster here on the forums.

410whp from a Boss 600? Not interested.

A single datapoint, referencing a dyno # we have no context for is useless.

A BOSS 600 running 26#'s is not representative of its potential.

The REVO may be a quality piece, no dispute here. It's just hilariously over-priced relative to its direct competition. Not to mention the flexibility an Accessport/UM/Maestro tune affords.

To each their own, but along SugarMouth, I'm not sold.

Just buy the complete turbo.

It will cost you less than buying a core, shipping it over, and paying to have it built.

Figured as much. My previous plan was to go with fcp euro to take advantage of their warranty in case the stock turbo did pop, but I'd rather not subject my block to that if I can help it.

Littco's is38x it is then.

This thread really escalated from simplify is38 to how do we get to 400hp easily. Whoof. Personally I'd be good with a standard is38, y'all wild.

Hey I made 399whp/434wtq on a standard IS38

The Revo IS38ETR is expensive but also pretty solid. I'm looking at one 8.67s 60-130 on dragy with a Golf R DSG. I see 3 more at 8.85, 9.16, 9.52. That's not too shabby.
